2.3 Video text synchronization 
Separately, it is worth considering simultaneous translation in the 
film industry. A distinctive feature of such a translation is the pictorial 
series. The essence lies in the simultaneous translation of the speech of 
the actors or the announcer. There can be three situations: the presence of 
a translated edit sheet, the presence of the original edit sheet (or subtitles), 
and the absence of the edit sheet. 

---

The first situation is described by I.S. Alekseeva, who identifies a 
type of simultaneous translation called video text synchronization, that is, 
the pronunciation of the finished translation [Alekseeva, 2004, p. 
nineteen]. Preliminary written translation is done by the voice translator 
or his colleague. It should be noted that at the moment this type of 
translation is not relevant for the film translation industry, where the 
translator only translates the text of the film, and other people are engaged 
in voice acting and styling. The translation of the edit sheet is often edited 
by a stacker who performs lipsing (from the English lip-sync). This term 
refers to the process of adapting the phonetic form in the target language 
to the movements of the lips of the actors in the video [Multimedia 
translation]. It is also important that the length of the sound of the text in 
the original language and in the target language match. This allows you to 
create the impression that the actors speak the language of a foreign-
speaking audience, and immerse yourself in the film more, without being 
distracted by subtitles and foreign speech.
The other two situations usually occur at film festivals, where the 
film is shown for the first time and information such as dialogues and 
monologues from the script is not supposed to be disclosed. Simultaneous 
translation of film festivals with the presence of editing was used for a 
long time abroad along with subtitles until 1985, but subtitles were most 
often preferred. In the USSR, translators had to translate the film by ear, 
with rare exceptions, which continued until the end of the 1980s. 
Despite the fact that sight translation and simultaneous reading of a 
previously translated text are separate from proper simultaneous 
translation, they are often used along with it, so it makes sense to consider 
these types of translation.
